    I'm hitting a dead spot :(

    Ok, If your a troll fuck off.


    I've hit a dead spot of making money

    I submit galleries out the ass all the time and never convert, I'm thinking about buying about 50 dollars in adwords to see if i can get my return on investment, It's so tough making money honestly and not being a scammer or a spammer

          When I did my site on deluxepass I got pretty good signups for the little submitting galleries i did, But i gave up on that a few months ago to see if I could make any money promoting other programs but i've had no luck at all, I'm currently revising my dp site to start promoting that again

              you gotta try to send at least 5k to a sponsor a month before you decide to throw in the towel

              and the guys making $3-4k/month have been in the biz a long time and have thousands of galleries and free sites up, or use other methods

              the other half of the guys making $3-4k/month are usually liars

              try and figure how much traffic each tgp is getting you, if you have webalizer it works great.

              kill any sites that arent sending you more than 1000 hits a month, and add differant ones.

              try to be strategic about it, also posting a few samples of your galleries here might help you out.. some people here would be happy to try to give you pointers

                basically 3 thumbnail galleries, linked together from an ad page, and a warning page linking to the main page

                check green guys link-o-rama or richards realms free sites listings for some examples

                  A free site is a page you make to submit to link lists.

                  It has 4 pages usally.

                  a warning page with a link to a main page and the main page has a link to 2 galleries each gallery must have 10 pics and have no more than 3 out going links.

                      Oh ok, So these are a good start? Nice nice, Where can i get a full robust list of link lists?

                      I think the db service on advanced submitter has a list of link lists, ill have to fire it up tommorow and look hehe

                        If you are getting the traffic and not converting this is what you do. Go to the biggest TGP's and look at their galleries in the top spots. Now do your homework. If you submit only pic galleries...then look at them carefully. People in the top spots are usually the ones that pay for the listing. Those that pay for listings are generally those that know how to convert. Now ask yourself these questions.

                        How big are their pics?
                        Look at how they choose the pics....how many clothed.how many nude? How many if any "money shots"?
                        What wording do they use to get someone to click?
                        How many links to sponsor do they have? Where are they located?
                        Do they have a lot of text/hype? What do they say?
                        Design....do they go all out? plain and simple or somewhere in between?
                        What colors do they use for text etc.?

                        Now...look at your galleries. How do they compare? What changes can you make so that they better compare to the ones that convert?

                                  also keep in mind most ratios off galleries can be high, around 1:1200 and up, so its really important to try to be sending 5k-10k a month to the sites your promoting to make any money.

                                  even 10k to a site would only pull around $100 or so a month depending on the ratio and signup price

                                  its a game of patience and time to build that up

                                    submit galleries, apply for partner accounts, turn galleries into free sites, submit to link lists, turn free sites into avs sites, and be willing to try new things. dont keep all your eggs in one basket and dont give up on sponsor until your sent a reasonable deal of hits.

                                        oh im not giving up, i understand its a game of waiting but i just made this thread to get more knowledge on how to play the game better

                                          i only spend about 5 minutes tops on my gallery designs, and my click-thru's and gallery revenue reflects it

                                          tgp was my main game more than a year ago, and i was decent at it.. but ive used my skills as a programmer to move on to other things

                                          i started in 2002

                                            Submitting galleries is a numbers game. And marketing of course as you need the click thrus.

                                            Consider.. If your galleries get 100,000 views a day. You might get 500-2000 a day actually clicking thru to the sponsor. 2,000 IF your ad and/or content is good. Then depending on the quality of the traffic you might convert anywhere from 1:50 to 1:3000. And that can vary from week to week as well. Case in point, one sponsor I send maybe 1000-1500 a week to generated 4 sales last week and none this week so far.

                                            So if you want to consistently make good money, you need to be talking about 1,000,000 page views a day or more. For that you're going to need partner accounts, and make sure you kiss the ass of every TGP owner so as not to get banned.

                                                Listen to me ok. Seriously. I know a guy who makes rite now $200/day from submiting gallries alone. That is his job. And he did now do this in 1 day, 1 week or 1 month. It took him 2 years. (btw do movie gallries)

                                                1st : Buy ChameleonSubmitter and ChameleonConfirmer @ http://chameleonsubmitter.com
                                                2st : Make 5 really good sample galleries.
                                                3st : Then just started asking for partner account @ every tgp you know, big small dont matter.
                                                But if its a big tgp and you got his icq, dont just icq him and ask for partner account, first tell the guy that, hey nice site. Talk to him about 2 days and bring up the partner account the 3rd day

                                                The guy i know did this for 2 years, just collecting partner account. And now he makes $200/day. So dont belive the when people say gallerie submition dont make $. I myself tried this, but it gets SOOOO boring, so i quit like the 2nd week. I did make some good $ though.

                                                    also look into linkdumps, thats even more free traffic as well

                                                    check your stats constantly for places you dont submit to (ie: surfer forums).. if someone linked to your gallery from a surfer forum chances are they love that kinda shit, and its usually a little more potent than tgp traffic

                                                        You'll be more likely to get a partner account if you have exclusive content. I can help you with this. I'll get you some content from within the members area and if you get to the point where you can do a sale a day for us, we'll host your domain for free.

                                                                  The TGP game is all about partner accounts. Without them it's really hard to get anywhere. If you've been doing this for a while, just look through all of your galleries and compile a list of about 5 of what you think are your best galleries.

                                                                  Then do what xlogger said, and apply for as many partner accounts as you can. Partner accounts usually get you listed every day & in a better position than normal submits. It really makes a big difference.

                                                                  Also take the advice of turning your galleries into freesites. If you've got 2 cumshot galleries, all you need is a simple warning page and an index page pointing to the 2 galleries and you've got a freesite. & freesites usually get great SE traffic if you play around with your wording ;)

                                                                  I still get boobdollars sales from the SEs from sales I did last year. 1:20-1:50 is not usual for the se traffic, which makes it worthwhile to build those freesites ;)

                                                                        I have to disagree with this if the TGP has a "regular" submit as well as partner accounts. I won't even look at someone asking for partner status if they haven't proved themselves by submitting in the regular queue. Practically every day we get 2-4 people asking for partner status that have never submitted to the site before. I delete the request out of hand and never respond to them. You want to get listed? Then earn it by actually submitting some good galleries for awhile.

                                                                        Once you've submitted consistently for awhile, THEN apply for a partner account and list every gallery you've submitted that they've listed.

                                                                            most newbies will do crap work and low pay for years and maybe never gain anything. its a new market get the fuck out is my advice or build up a rep thats about all you can do these days for you new guys.

Why would you work your ass off submitting galleries if the max you're going to earn is like 5K/month? That's nothing after taxes. Stop thinking TGP/Galleries is the best advice I can give you.

                                                                                  I routinely make about 7K a month and have been in the business 1 year. I didn't start making any money for about 6 months and then I found my niche (not genre, but where I was supposed to be). Then after about 3 more months I found out how to grow TGP's. Then in the last 2 months I figured out Adwords. Now I am looking to make a shitload more than I am now.

                                                                                  My guess is that you don't know how to study. Before I spend money on an Adwords campaign I study the other people already doing it. Look for where they are not optimizing their results and try to out-pace them. If they are more optimized than myself, then I can figure I just took myself to school and apply it to a campaign with another site or keywords.

                                                                                  With TGP's the secret is so fucking insanely simple... But, it is a secret so you gotta figure it out on your own... Hint, everyone with an autosignup for trades page tells you to do it, but you should only do it once and do it for free. Also, selling raw traffic means you can buy unique traffic at no charge.

                                                                                  Stop looking for get rich quick and realize that the people who built 500 free sites that pay them $5000 a month spent a considerable amount of time to built them. That is the final thought and hint.
